Since the Linux console has no connection to the X server, in that 
terminal you can speed up Vim startup considerably by using the -X 
command-line switch.

Even in Console mode, Vim compiled with +x11 will try to connect to the 
X server at startup because it still uses X for the +clipboard and/or 
+clientserver features, to save and restore the console window title, 
its contents (+xterm_save), and to "save itself" at X-windows closedown 
(+xsmp or +xsmp_interact).
